Charlie Brooker’s sci-fi anthology series returns to Netflix in April, with six episodes, including a sequel to “USS Callister.” Watch the first teaser trailer.
Netflix announced on Thursday that Charlie Brooker’s conversation-starting bleak-future anthology series Black Mirror will return for a seventh season on April 10. The announcement came with a gallery of season images and a preview trailer for the six-episode season, which includes prominent appearances from Paul Giamatti, Peter Capaldi, Awkwafina, and others, plus a Black Mirror first: an entire sequel episode, taking up the story of the season 4 episode “USS Callister.”
Brooker had previously stated at a Netflix press event that two of this season’s episodes are “basically feature length,” and that the tone of the season returns to Black Mirror’s original blend of horror and dark futurism: “It’s back to basics in many ways. They’re all sci-fi stories — there’s definitely some horrifying things that occur, but maybe not in an overt horror-movie way.
